Uh...well I've seen 190s...

---

Washed up footy player turned Triathlete.

I think, within the last year or so, my max HR is 183 which I hit in a race on Zwift.

207 recently but have been in the mid 210s before.

Some are built like diesel engines. Some are built like high revving Honda engines. Max heart rates are pretty much individualized and don't mean squat. I'm over 50yo and I can hit low 190's during VO2 max intervals.

Basically in the same ballpark.. Only 26 years old and I'm dying going past 170.. 174 is the highest I've seen during testing/racing, but my aerobic threshold was 148 and my anaerobic threshold was 167 which says more than just max. heart rate.

I'm 52

During VO2Max test : max 175
During Track races including maximal anaerobic efforts : max 184

If Lionel push 500w for 10mn, his PMA is probably higher than that (logical given its weight and capacity), so 169 bpm is lower than his Max HR.

220-age=178
max I have seen in 178 in a race

I exactly match that formula

I'm 38 years-old. Lowest HR I've ever seen = 31bpm, Highest I've seen in 2 years = 174bpm. LTHR = 164bpm. Everyone on my mother's side has a very low HR.

35YO, minimum seen overnight is 28, Maximum 205, LTHR 178

What does max HR of 169 mean, in terms of performance level?

Nothing

Age 25
Weight 140
Max HR 205 during a 5k last year.
Finish Time: we don’t need to discussed

Fact: I got up to 185 one time chasing Gwen Jorgensen around the track with my GoPro 🤣

That's what I thought. So why are we talking it?

 
A few years ago (at 54), I'd routinely max out at 174. While dealing with afib throughout 2017, I was hitting 220 in my sleep :(
Post ablation, 168-170 seems to be the ceiling now...

"I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 10, and I don't know why!"

Social contact ?
Also, some peoples think it mean something.

1+6+9 = 16
1+6 = 7
7 is ..... euh, not shoe size, not frame size, duh... margin to Frodeno in seconds, for Kona 2019 ?

Saw 193 a few weeks ago on the run. Averaged over 185 for the last mile on the run.

I think the mega miles over the years lower max HR for lots of athletes. When I was 17 starting the sport I could hit 200, 10 years and 200 000km+ later, I haven't seen 180 in a year or two. Mid training cycle with some fatigue in the system 172 is near the limit.

At 50 best I can see is low 170's.

Are you new here...?

I think it’s interesting to know Lionel’s max hr and others as well in terms of knowing when and if they are pushing.

When racing zwift, knowing someone’s max hr and current hr allows me to either ease or push depending on the tactic.

Link?

Finally, someone in my territory!! Tested at a max of 166 on the bike. Apparently I have 'large organs'...

Start about 8:40 if it doesn't take you there.

186 this month @ nearly 58 y/o (according to Garmin Connect). I got my annual physical this week. They are accustomed to seeing low-ish resting HR from me (50-ish). Monday? 41 bpm. Raised a few eyebrows. But I just passed a stress test/echo a month ago, so... All pretty individual/meaningless...
